Pyridine type thiazolidines

ABSTRACT

The present invention provides novel pyridine type thiazolidines and their salts, expressed by the following formula (I): ##STR1##

This application is a continuation in part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/704,774 filed Mar. 27, 1995, now abandoned and incorporated entirely herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to novel pyridine type thiazolidines having a hypoglycemic effect and an anti-glycation effect, which are useful in medical and veterinary fields, particularly useful for preventing or treating diabetes mellitus and diabetic complications.

BACKGROUND ART

Heretofore, various sulfonylurea derivatives and biguanide derivatives have been widely used as oral hypoglycemic agents for lowering blood sugar values. However, these agents had disadvantages of causing serious hypoglycemic coma and lactic acidosis revelation, and therefore every possible care must have been taken for practical use. "Chem. Pharm. Bull., vol. 30, p. 3563 (1982)", "J. Med. Chem., vol. 32, p. 421 (1989)", "J. Med. Chem., vol. 34, p. 318 (1991)", "J. Med. Chem., vol. 33, p. 1418 (1990)", Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 64586/1980, and European Laid Open Patent Publications No. 177353, No. 283035, No. 283036, No. 332331, No. 332332 and No. 605228 disclose various thiazolidindiones which achieve a hypoglycemic effect, and these are particularly useful for treating Type II diabetes and are noted as agents for hardly causing such hypoglycemic symptoms as caused by the above-mentioned oral hypoglycemic agents. However, although these compounds have a function of effectively lowering a blood sugar value, but it is not proved that these compounds have effects for reducing or preventing various chronic symptoms caused by diabetes, such as diabetic nephropathy, diabetic cataract, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic neuropathy and the like.

On the other hand, non-enzymatic glycosylation of vital protein has been recently noted for causing various diseases accompanied by diabetes and arteriosclerosis. Generally, the reaction of reducing sugars with amino acids and proteins caused by heat treatment of foods or during storing foods is known as Maillard reaction. It was recognized in 1970's that the Maillard reaction is actually caused in a living body, and this reaction is recently called as glycation (see "J. Biol. Chem., vol. 252, p. 2998 (1977)"). Also, it has been proved that glycation is exacerbated in such chronic hyperglycemic state as in diabetes, and it is presumed that the glycation becomes a trigger for causing various diabetic complications (see "New Eng. J. Med., vol. 314, p. 403(1986)"). The process of glycation is not completely clear, but it is considered that various vital proteins are reacted with reducing sugars to non-enzymatically form Schiff base, and that this is crosslinked after causing Amadori rearrangement and is converted to fluorescent browning materials, i.e. AGE (advanced glycosylation end products). It was recognized in rat's diabetic cataract that glycation of crystallin of lens protein is exacerbated. Also, it is presumed that glycation of myelin protein causes diabetic neuropathy and that glycation of collagen and elastin present in connective tissue causes renal dysfunction-inducing thickening of renal glomerular basement membrane and atherosclerosis. Brownlee et al reported that the anti-glycation effect of aminoguanidine prevents formation of AGE protein on arterial walls of a rat suffering from diabetes, and the aminoguanidine becomes remarkable as an agent for preventing diseases including diabetes mellitus (see "Science, vol. 232, p. 1629 (1986)"). However, the above-mentioned function of aminoguanidine is not always sufficient, and an agent achieving an anti-glycation effect satisfactory for practical use has not been found yet.

On the other hand, aldose reductase (AR) is known to be an enzyme for reducing aldoses such as glucose and galactose to polyols such as sorbitol and galactitol in a living body. It is also known that accumulation of the polyols thus produced by the enzyme in organs induces or exacerbates various diabetic complications such as diabetic retinopathy, diabetic neuropathy and diabetic nephropathy, and therefore an inhibitor against this enzyme is useful as an agent for treating these diabetic complications.

Under these circumstances, the present inventors have synthesized various thiazolidines which are not disclosed in the above-mentioned literatures, and have studied their properties. As this result, the present inventors have found a compound having an anti-glycation effect and aldose-reductase inhibitory activities which were not exhibited by the above-mentioned known compounds. Thus, the present invention provides pyridine type thiazolidines capable of preventing or treating diabetes mellitus and diabetic complications.

4.04 (25 mmol) of 5-hydroxypyridinemethanol hydrochloride (Compound No. IV-1) (prepared in accordance with a method disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,202,901) and 7.00 g (25 mmol) of 4-bromoacetyl-5-methyl-2-phenyloxazole (prepared by way of 4-acetyl-5-methyl-2-phenyloxazole in accordance with a method disclosed in "J. Chem. Soc. (C), p. 1397 (1968) and Japanese Unexamined patent Publication No. 85372/1986) were dissolved in 100 ml of dimethylformamide dehydrated with molecular sieve. To the resultant solution, was added 5.18 g of anhydrous potassium carbonate, and the resultant solution was stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. The solvent was distilled off from this reaction solution at 60° C. under a reduced pressure by an evaporator, and the viscous residue thus obtained was extracted with 100 ml of chloroform. The solution thus obtained was washed with brine, and was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After removing the drying agent by filtration, the residue obtained by distilling the solvent off under a reduced pressure was subjected to 5 silica gel column chromatography (eluent: 50% --ethyl acetate/benzene and then ethyl acetate and finally 5% --methanol/chloroform) to obtain 2.58 g (31.9%) of yellow-brown powder of the aimed product (Compound No. III-1).

0.756 g (6.14 mmol) of 5-hydroxy-2-pyridinecarbaldehyde (Compound No. XIII-1) (prepared in accordance with a method disclosed in Japanese Unexamined patent Publication No. 273659/1990) and 1.72 g (6.14 mmol) of 4-bromoacetyl-5-methyl-2-phenyloxazole were dissolved in 29 ml of dimethylformaldehyde dehydrated with molecular sieve, and the resultant solution was stirred at room temperature. To this solution, was gradually added 1.6 ml (9.21 mmol) of diisopropyl ethylamine, and the resultant solution was stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hours. After recognizing the end of the reaction by thin layer chromatography, 200 ml of chloroform was added to the resultant solution and the resultant solution was washed with brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After removing the drying agent by filtration, the solvent was distilled off under a reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (50% --ethyl acetate/hexane) to obtain 1.318 g (61%) of the aimed product (Compound No. II-1).

0.15 g (0.47 mmol) of Compound No. (II-1) and 0.11 g of thiazolidindione were suspended in 10 ml of toluene dehydrated with molecular sieve. To this solution, were added 8.4 mg of glacial acetic acid and then 7.9 mg of piperidine, and the resultant solution was stirred at 130° C. for 15 hours. After recognizing disappearance of the starting materials by thin layer chromatography, the precipitated material was dissolved by adding chloroform and methanol to the reaction mixture. The solution thus obtained was washed with brine, and was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After removing the drying agent by filtration, the solvent was distilled off under a reduced pressure, and the residue thus obtained was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (eluent: chloroform and then 5%--methanol/chloroform) to obtain 0.18 g (94.1%) of pale brown powder of the aimed product (Compound No. I-1a-1).

TEST EXAMPLE 2 Measurement of Anti-Glycation Effect

When high-glucose concentrations in diabetic patients sustain for a long time, some kinds of proteins are glycated non-enzymatically. It is considered that the glycated proteins induce diabetic complications (Brownlee, Diabetes, 41 suppl 2, 57-60, 1992).

Because glycated protein is fluorescent, the amount of glycated protein can be determined using fluorescence, according to the previous reports (Doi et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 89, 2873-2877, 1992: Mitsuhashi et al., Diabetes, vol. 42, 826-832, 1993). The experimental procedure was modified as follows. Five percent of bovine serum albumin (BSA) containing 0.5M glucose-6-phosphate-2Na (5% BSA-0.5M G6P) was filtration-sterilized (with 0.45 μm-pore size filter) and was incubated at 37° C.; positive control was incubated with 1% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 37° C.; blank was incubated at 4° C. All test-compounds dissolved in DMSO (final concentration of DMSO was less than 1%) were added in 5% BSA-0.5M G6P. After 10 day-incubation 5% BSA-0.5M G6P with a compound, positive control and blank were dialyzed against 2L phosphate buffered saline for 24 hours (fractional molecular weight: 12,000-14,000). The dialyzed solution was diluted in water 4 times and was determined the fluorescence (ex. 370 nm-em. 440 nm). The protein concentration of the dialyzed solution (10 μL of which was diluted to 20 times with distilled water) was determined by Lowry-method and the fluorescence was expressed per mg protein. Control (100%) was positive control minus blank. Anti-glycation effect was calculated as the percentage of the control.

TEST EXAMPLE 3 Measurement of Aldose-Reductase Inhibitory Activities

Rat kidney AR was prepared as follows; Rat kidney was perfused by ice-cold saline to remove blood and then homogenized in a Teflon homogenizer with 3 time volumes of cold 5 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4). The homogenate was centrifuged at 45,000×g for 40 minutes to remove insoluble materials, and the supernatant fraction was used as an aldose reductase sample. Determination of AR and effects of test compounds

AR activity was assayed by the modified method of Inukai et al. (Jpn. J. Pharmacol 61, 221-227, 1993). The absorbance of NADPH (340 nm), oxidation of the co-factor for AR, was determined by spectrophotometer (UV-240, Shimadzu, Kyoto). The assay was carried out in 0.1M sodium phosphate (pH 6.2) containing 0.4M lithium sulfate, 0.15 mM NADPH, the enzyme, various concentrations of test compounds and 10 mM DL-glyceraldehyde. The reference blank contained all of the above ingredients, except for DL-glyceraldehyde. The reaction was started by addition of the substrate (DL-glyceraldehyde). The reaction rate was measured at 30° C. for 2 minutes. All test compounds were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The final concentration of DMSO in reaction mixture never exceeded 1%. The effects of inhibitors were estimated as the concentration of test compounds required for 50% inhibition of enzyme activity (IC₅₀).

As this result, the compounds of the present invention exhibited satisfactory aldose-reductase inhibitory activities.
